Festival Celebration

Spain has their unique festivals and customs, like bull fighting in San Fermín, tomato fight in La Tomatina, puppets burning in Las Falles and such. Every year, if possible, we will have a celebration around these important festival dates so as to let HongKongers experience the Spanish festive spirit.

Have you ever heard of Three Kings’ Day? Christmas and Boxing Day is said to be to commemorate the birth of Jesus Christ and the three kings who arrived to his manger to give him gold, Frankincense and myrrh respectively. There is, however, another belief in western countries that the dates of kings arrival were actually fifth and sixth of January; and it’s called Epiphany or the Three Kings’ Day, and so in Spain, every year on these 2 days, there will be huge celebration activities, including a parade that give away sweets, unwrapping presents, Christmas feasts and so on. In Catalonia region, there are human towers so called “Castells” (above) to celebrate. 5th and 6th January 2019 were Saturday and Sunday, the association had present swapping and feast party going overnight.
